When you are asked to construct a graph that represents one quantity in terms of another quantity how do you know which quantity to place as a label on which axes?

You get one (first) quantity by itself in terms of another(second) and by convention that first quantity is on the y axis and the second on the x. It does not make any difference which quantity you choose to be by itself. For example, suppose the first quantity is D for dollars and the second is C for cents and D = 100C You plot D on the y axis and C on the x However you could choose to get C by itself as C = D/100 and plot C on the y axis and D on the x So you need not worry about which quantity, just get any one by itself and plot on the y axis

How did the x-axis and y-axis get their name?
